Amazing
WHAT an experience 🇹🇿
We had the chance to go on a 10 day Safari trip this summer, and it was the absolute best vacation we ever had!
Between our stay at the Masai’s with view on the Kilimanjaro, the discovery of the local culture, Tarangiri National Park, Ngorogoro Krater, Serengeti National Park, it was absolutely breathtaking and a lifetime experience!
But what made our vacation even more special, was Silas, our extraordinary guide. He made it absolutely unforgettable. He planned our whole trip, with amazing lodges, breathtaking views, a capacity of spotting all those different animals, his knowledge of all those different species, but especially because he is such a beautiful person. He is welcoming, nice, has a lot of sense of humor and much more!
I absolutely recommend Silas as a guide and would like to thank him for this unforgettable experience! Hope we’ll be lucky enough to meet you again!
Asante Sana - Hakuna Matata ☀️

★★★★★ Unforgettable 8-Day Safari with Silas – Highly Recommended!
We had one of the best trips of our lives with Silas from Luwai Safari. From day one — a relaxed start at a beautiful lodge — right through to our last days in Zanzibar, every detail was thoughtfully planned and executed.
You know that feeling when you instantly click with someone? That's Silas. He didn't think twice about picking us up from the airport at 2am on our arrival day, even though the safari itself only started two days later (we'd simply flown in early to settle in). That's just who he is.
The route through Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater, the Central Serengeti, and all the way up to Kogatende in the North Serengeti was a dream: lions hunting zebra, beautiful male lions, baby elephants and thousands more, white rhinos, giraffes, cheetahs with cubs, a leopard hoisting its kill up a tree, countless zebras, birds, and gazelles, and finally the Great Migration with over 1,000 wildebeest crossing the river — pure goosebumps. Silas also took the time to teach us about Maasai culture along the way, the people who traditionally lived in this area — genuinely one of the most fascinating parts of the trip.
What really sets Silas apart is his eye for the perfect angle — our photos and videos look like they're straight out of a wildlife documentary, and our friends back home were blown away. Beyond that, he's simply great company — high energy and genuinely entertaining, which makes all the difference on early-morning starts and long drives. He's motivated, ambitious, and always goes the extra mile to make sure things get done right.
Silas runs his own business as a self-employed guide, and you can feel it — the personal attention and quality of service that come with that, combined with real drive to grow and keep expanding what he offers. On top of it all, he also runs a foundation supporting his local community.
If you're planning a safari in Tanzania: get in touch with Silas — you won't find better hands to be in!

Best experience ever!!!
Our safari with Luwai Tanzania Safari from July 2–11 was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we could not recommend him more highly.
From the very beginning, everything was incredibly well organized, but what made this trip truly unforgettable was the people, especially our guide, Silas. He was absolutely exceptional. His knowledge seemed endless; he could identify virtually any bird we encountered and tell us fascinating details about it, and his ability to track wildlife was unbelievable. There were moments when we could barely see an animal ourselves, sometimes only an ear above the grass, and Sillas somehow knew exactly where to look and what was happening.
Thanks to him, we were able to experience some truly unimaginable moments, including an incredible leopard sighting that he personally tracked down for us. Seeing the great wildebeest migration was another unforgettable highlight and something our family will talk about for years to come.
What made Silas so special, though, went far beyond his skills as a guide. He made our family feel completely welcomed from the moment we met him. He was so accommodating, kind, and thoughtful that it genuinely felt like we had known him for years. He didn't just show us Tanzania, he shared it with us. On our first day, he took the time to show us his town and introduce us to aspects of his culture and everyday life. That personal connection meant so much to our family, and by the end of the trip, we had developed a genuine friendship with him.
The places we stayed throughout the trip were also amazing, with beautiful views, wonderful food, and incredibly welcoming staff. Every accommodation added something special to the experience, and we always felt comfortable and well taken care of.
Our itinerary through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Central Serengeti, and Northern Serengeti gave us such an incredible variety of landscapes and wildlife, but it was the combination of the breathtaking places, unforgettable encounters, and especially the people who shared the experience with us that made this trip so meaningful.
We came to Tanzania hoping for an incredible safari, but we left with memories that our entire family will treasure for the rest of our lives, and a friendship with Silas that we never expected to make along the way.
A huge thank you to Luwai Tanzania Safari and especially to Silas for giving our family such an extraordinary experience. If you are considering a safari in Tanzania, we wholeheartedly recommend Luwai Tanzania Safari. You will be in wonderful hands.

Incredible 9 days safari in tanzania
Hello, we went on an 11-day safari, fully organized by Silas. First, we were able to visit the village where he grew up, which was an eye-opener regarding the harsh living conditions in some regions of Tanzania. We stayed 2 nights in a lodge run by members of the Maasai tribe. We learned about certain customs of this tribe, which was very interesting. Then, we visited Tarangire National Park, followed by Ngorongoro Crater, and then the central and northern Serengeti to finish. It is clearly a unique trip of its kind. Having the opportunity to spend 9 days in national parks surrounded by wildlife is exceptional. This trip would not have been as successful without Silas's guiding qualities. Indeed, he is an expert; he knows the animals, their behaviors, and where to find them. We were amazed by the quality of his explanations, his extensive knowledge of the animals and parks, his good humor, and his willingness to take care of us, whether during car trips, at meals, or in the lodges. He organized a trip that exceeded our expectations, and we are happy to have gone through him. I highly recommend this company and this guide!

Unforgettable Tanzanian safari with Silas
Our 11-day safari with Luwai Tanzania Safari, guided by Silas, was truly the trip of a lifetime. From the moment we arrived at Kilimanjaro International Airport and began our safari in Arusha, until our relaxing beach stay in Zanzibar, every detail was perfectly organized.
Our journey took us through Tarangire National Park, Karatu, the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, Central Serengeti, and Northern Serengeti before flying to Zanzibar. Every destination offered something unique, and thanks to Silas, we experienced the very best that Tanzania has to offer.
The game drives were incredible. We enjoyed early morning, midday, and sunset safaris, each revealing different aspects of the African wilderness. We were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, witness the breathtaking Great Migration, and countless other unforgettable wildlife encounters. Every day exceeded our expectations.
Silas planned our entire vacation with exceptional professionalism. His communication before and during the trip was excellent, giving us complete confidence that everything was taken care of. The lodges he selected were outstanding, offering beautiful locations in the heart of nature, excellent amenities, delicious food, and warm hospitality. Even the connecting flight to Zanzibar was seamless and stress-free.
What truly made this safari extraordinary was Silas himself. He is an exceptional guide—professional, punctual, incredibly knowledgeable about wildlife, birds, and the natural environment, and passionate about sharing his expertise. He always seemed to know where to find the best wildlife and the hidden gems that made every game drive special.
Beyond his expertise, Silas is kind, humble, respectful, funny, and easy to spend time with. After 11 days together, we felt we were traveling with a trusted friend rather than just a guide. We always felt safe, comfortable, and in the very best hands.
We cannot recommend Luwai Tanzania Safari and Silas highly enough. If you’re looking for an authentic, well-organized, and unforgettable safari experience in Tanzania, look no further. Thank you, Silas, for creating memories that will stay with us forever. We hope to return one day!
